About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Good older paint with chips from use. The upholstery is sound and attractive but stretched and wrinkled. The engine compartment is orderly but driven and the chassis is oily and road grimy.

Market commentary

One of only 85 believed built with this engine which uses dual camshafts high mounted just below the cylinder head, short pushrods and rocker arms, like the more familiar Riley engines. Well-restored but also well-used, this below low estimate result is reasonable but gives the new owner distinct bragging rights at British car gatherings.
